Tasting Notes: One of the great wines of Gigondas, this is already a very stylish wine with lovely, elegant fruit characters (some of the top Gigondas wines can be a little overblown in some vintages such as 2003) and well-integrated oak. A real pleasure. | Drinking Dates: 2008 to 2020 | Cépagement: 55% Grenache, 25% Mourvèdre, 20% Syrah | Soil: Clay and rock, below the great Jurassic calcareous ridge of the Dentelles de Montmirail on small terraces | Upbringing: Hand-picked, severe selection, crushing, destalking, cold pre-fermentation and separate fermentation for each variety for 21 days with pigeage and temperature control. Aged in 100% oak casks, around 40% new. | ABV: 13.5% | Critic Reviews: "Simply sumptuous -
our favourite wine" ( RVF
Rhone tasting 10/06)
